Now THIS is the life!

A trip to the beach.

Keeping Cool

My happy family

Hanging out at the beach sure is fun! 

Whoa Nelly - it sure is hot! I'm so hot I don't think I'll even bother with my bathing suit. 

I'm 6 months old today. 

Look at me sitting up all by myself now! 

Watermelon! This is the life! 

I don't like those vegetables in the jar that my parents keep trying to feed me, but give me a nice, cool piece of watermelon to suck on any day! 

Here I am with my big cousin Derek. I liked playing with him on the weekend.  

Oh, I just love it here! 

I just can't wait to get into that water. 

This beach is great. 

Here we are going for a walk on the beach. I sure do like it here! 

Here I am all dressed up and ready to go visiting (not long after this picture was taken I had a disaster poo - there was even poop on my socks and shoes and on my grandma Sylke's kitchen floor!). 

Pen lent me his "Jumperoo" since it will be a while before he is ready to use it. I don't really jump in it yet, but I love standing in it and playing with all of the toys. 

So nice that maybe I'll eat them.... My mom had to run over and take the petals out of my mouth. I guess you're not supposed to eat flowers. 

Here I am in grandma Sylke's garden. These flowers sure do look nice.... 

Here I am sleeping in the little nursery that my grandma Sylke had ready for me when I got to the cottage. What a great bedroom I have! 

Here we are enjoying a coffee on the deck in the backyard.  

Well, we are finally in the south for our holidays. My grandpa is teaching me how to drive.
